Backstage handles the portal. Crossplane handles provisioning. Kratix handles composability — promise-based platform services.
Promise-Based Platform¶
Kratix Promise = a declarative definition of a platform service. The platform team defines the Promise, the dev team consumes it.
Complements the Ecosystem¶
- Backstage: UI → Kratix: fulfillment engine
- Crossplane: Cloud resources → Kratix: workflow orchestration
- Argo/Flux: Delivery → Kratix: what to deliver
Compound Promises¶
Promise Production-ready microservice = K8s namespace + PostgreSQL + CI pipeline + monitoring + networking. One API call, entire stack.
Kratix Is the Missing Piece in the IDP Puzzle¶
The promise-based model is intuitive and composable. An elegant abstraction for IDP.
